Exact(20)

The degree of polarization may depend on the angle of reflection and the polarized light reflected by the beetles may have function in recognition of the species.

The angle between the direction of motion of the oncoming wave and a perpendicular to the reflecting surface (angle of incidence) is equal to the angle between the direction of motion of the reflected wave and a perpendicular (angle of reflection).

When a ray of light is reflected at a polished surface, the angle of reflection between ray and normal (the line at right angles to the surface) is exactly equal to the angle of incidence.

Thus, multiple diffraction produces a reflected beam at a wavelength longer than the angle of reflection and the spacing of the horizontal planes should allow when Bragg's law is applied to them.

The latter attribute enables him to see the angle of incidence of a 140-mile-an-hour serve, determine the desired angle of reflection for his return, then smack the ball with the sweet spot of his racket.
